Noted. I did buy a Wii U -just- for Mario Maker. It's one of my few non-regret console purchases. But, it's still mild regret cause that's the ONLY game I really have enjoyed on that console. It has given me the value of the console about 8x over. But, Games like that are rare.

Will put it in the 'reasons to buy a PS4' list, and maybe I'll grab one. They're mildly affordable these days.

Well, I said I would post my thoughts, and now I will. Bought it almost 2 months ago but had other things to play. Glad I put this game off until I could focus on it because DAMN does this game suck you in. The visuals, facial animation, voice acting, pacing, etc., are all top notch, and I genuinely cared for a lot of the characters, even ones you see only a few times or only "hear" from in audio logs. The story is way better than almost all open world games ever made (with a few exceptions like Witcher 3), and gets into some pretty heavy sci-fi stuff too. It also now takes the crown as the prettiest game I've ever played. There isn't anything this game does that is subpar or even average, everything is above average or exceptional. I think it only lost some buzz because this year has been LOADED with long open-world/actiony games (Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Nioh, Nier: Automata, Yakuza 0, etc.), which it may get back a little with some DLC later this year.

Played through the DLC The Frozen Wastes. Icy/Snowy Mountains are always an interesting terrain option, and the day/night cycle matters quite a bit as it gets pretty freaking dark while it's snowing. The quests are pretty good, with similar themes of loss and sorrow in the audio logs, and a new ally for the future. Some of the new weapons are hella fun, with higher damage and bigger AoEs, although they eat up resources like crazy, and one of them can kill you if you hold the fire button too long.
